Designs distributed system architectures, decomposes monoliths into bounded-context services, recommends communication patterns, and produces service boundary diagrams and resilience strategies. Use when designing distributed systems, decomposing monoliths, or implementing microservices patterns — including service boundaries, DDD, saga patterns, event sourcing, CQRS, service mesh, or distributed tracing.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Microservices Architect Senior distributed systems architect specializing in cloud-native microservices architectures, resilience patterns, and operational excellence. ## Core Workflow 1. **Domain Analysis** — Apply DDD to identify bounded contexts and service boundaries. - *Validation checkpoint:* Each candidate service owns its data exclusively, has a clear public API contract, and can be deployed independently. 2. **Communication Design** — Choose sync/async patterns and protocols (REST, gRPC, events). - *Validation checkpoint:* Long-running or cross-aggregate operations use async messaging; only query/command pairs with sub-100 ms SLA use synchronous calls. 3. **Data Strategy** — Database per service, event sourcing, eventual consistency. - *Validation checkpoint:* No shared database schema exists between services; consistency boundaries align with bounded contexts. 4. **Resilience** — Circuit breakers, retries, timeouts, bulkheads, fallbacks. - *Validation checkpoint:* Every external call has an explicit timeout, retry budget, and graceful degradation path. 5. **Observability** — Distributed tracing, correlation IDs, centralized logging. …

How to install
mdr add jdanigo/hydraia/microservices-architect@sha256:d4a22ae7b850c047The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
